The steps you must take before submitting a complaint
1
Contact PSC
Raise your complaint with the Postal Services Company (PSC).
2
PSC will assess your complaint
The PSC will try and resolve your complaint to your satisfaction. This may take several weeks but you must allow them sufficient time to assess your complaint and respond.
3
Get in touch with POSTRS
If the customer and PSC are unable to find a mutually acceptable resolution to the complaint the PSC will issue a ‘final response letter’. This letter will tell you that the PSC is unable to take your complaint any further and it should normally say that you may refer the matter to CEDR for adjudication. You can then apply to CEDR for Adjudication.
